Hi Mladen (and other experts), many thanks for the information. After much mess I manged to integrate Tomcat into IIS 7.0 once. In order to rectify things I tried to do the integration again starting with a plain Vista Ultimate installation. Yet, I did not succeed again!
Here is what I did: 1. I installed Vista Ultimate. During installation I choose the option that all available updates should be installed too. 2. I installed Java and Tomcat with my webapp included. Connecting directly to Tomcat with a browser I checked that the webapp is up. 3. I installed IIS. In the dialog to turn Windows features on or off I first clicked on the root node "Internet Information Services" which selects a default set of features. Then I added ISAPI Extensions & ISAPI Filters resulting in the following selection: Internet Information Services ---Web Management Tools ------IIS Management Console ---World Wide Web Services ------Application Development Features ---------ISAPI Extensions ---------ISAPI Filters ------Common Http Features ---------Default Document ---------Directory Browsing ---------HTTP Errors ---------Static Content ------Health and Diagnostics ---------HTTP Logging ---------Request Monitor ------Performance Features ---------Static Content Compression ------Security ---------Request Filtering 4. After the IIS components were installed I started the IIS Manager. 4.1 On the server node opened the "ISAP and CGI Restrictions" and added the isapi_redirect.dll allowing this extension path to execute. 4.2 On the default web site I added a new virtual directory and entered its alias ("polfha") and as physical path the directory where isapi_redirect.dll resides. 4.3 On the default web site I opened the "ISAPI Filters" and added the isapi_redirect.dll naming the filter "polfha". 4.4 Finally, on the node of the "polfha" virtual directory I opened the "Handler Mappings" and enabled the "ISAP-dll" handler. Selecting the "ISAPI-dll" handler I edited the handler permissions having "Read", "Script", and "Execute" checked. After I had restarted IIS I tried to reach my webapp at "http://localhost/polfha/index.html". I got an "404.0" error. I assume that the redirector configuration is correct because it worked once under Vista and it works always under Windows 2000 / XP. Any ideas?
